Even if he did win, he’s a RINO. You wouldn’t be able to count on his vote on conservative legislation. If he was in there, I’ll bet he would vote with the liberals to ban guns.

being from super-Lib-haven-MA we need as many NE Reps that we can get, and to offset EW,

So I hope he wins !

The latest survey from MassINC Polling Group showed...
